1977 silverado fix up

[Sparkles]

Why not register it as a classic? Then you don't need an inspection sticker.

Uh
I have no idea, I think I'll do that.
Thanks

Cannot wait to see some more pics, reminds me of my first truck

My two favorite trucks were the 1967 and 1978 Chevy Stepside 4x4. Dream someday is to restore one.

For all your old interior parts that need restoring and for the plastic over the gauge cluster use the product called wipe new, you can get it at Walmart and it is truly magnificent... Sweet truck.. I got a 1972 K/5 Blazer I need to restore

Woah! I just came up on this thread!

Sparkles, what's the good word on the truck? It's been almost a year!

1977 silverado fix up

I'm currently waiting for Ca to send me a replacement title. Turns out my dad never filed release of lean in 1980 and had to jump through a bunch of hoops to get that.
I have B52 kit and shackle flip ordered which will get me 4" of lift. All new bushings, body mounts and motor mounts are in hand. As soon as I get title back I'm dropping it off at an interior shop for the seat.
Holding off on 1 ton gear for now. I'll throw a couple lockers in it and see what happens
I hope to have it street legal and reliable by spring turkey

Life just keeps getting in the way

Great plan! I had the same issue with a truck I bought when I was stationed in San Diego, waiting on their DMV is about as bad as it can get! I totally understand life getting in the way!

I need a kick in the butt to get my 86 on the road. All it needs is tags and inspection(which it'll pass) but I want to rebuild the front end first.

What a sweet truck

Thanks
Started chipping away at door panels this weekend. Replaced all rubber around the doors and operable windows.
Ordered most of the knick knacks I needed to finish interior up. Even a replacement dash pad.
Decided I can't stand that cover thing I put over it. Just does not hug everything as tight as I'd like it to
